The name Erres was derived from the initials of R.S.
Stokvis, of trading-company R.S. Stokvis & Zn in Rotterdam.
This trading-company made technical products since the end
of the nineteenth century. Using the name Erres Radio,
Stokvis started building and selling radios around 1923. An
advertisement for the first radio, the one valve receiver
Erres 1, appeared in the radio magazine "Radio-Wereld", that
year. For the first series of radios Erres used parts made
by different factories: Dutch N.S.F., the English Sterling
factory, and later Dutch factories Van der Heem & Bloemsma
and Philips. The K.W.S (1928), KY103 and KY104 (1929) were
the first AC radios. Erres claimed to have made the first
commercial Dutch AC radio with a built-in loudspeaker, the
KY107. In 1926, Van der Heem & Bloemsma is the most
important radio maker for Erres. After the recession of
1929, Erres' results decrease and the influence of Philips
increases. In 1930 Philips becomes an important share-holder,
and the Erres continues to sell radios and televisions, most
of them made by Van der Heem, with mainly Philips components.
In the mid sixties Philips takes over Van der Heem. bron;
